ATLUTD's color analyst Jason Longshore joins to update the Tata Martino signing, and how he will look to improve this roster.
Bayern Munich silence Paris, Liverpool humble Madrid, and young Americans shine under the Champions League lights. Then it's back home for MLS Game 3 weekend — five win-or-go-home showdowns from Charlotte to San Diego as the Audi 2025 Playoffs hit full throttle. Jason Longshore takes you through the chaos: who's advancing, who's wobbling, and what it all means for the league's biggest names. Plus, the 3-4-3 closes the show with Georgia's college heroes, Coquimbo Unido's historic Chilean title, and a new Atlanta United mini-pitch opening right here in Decatur.
